d'oh,

here's some more info on my problems with openafs on FC3 x86_64

after looking at dmesg and slapping my forhead I see:

libafs: Unknown symbol ia32_sys_call_table

at this point I looked at acinclude.m4, and tried this patch to force the test
for ia32_sys_cal_table to fail:

this then causes the make to fail when compiling the libafs module with these
errors:

Is there a way to get the current openafs code to work on a machine which has
neither ia32_sys_call_table, nor sys_call_table?
